KUKRI SPORTS ANNOUNCES EXCITING NEW YOUTH TALENT PROGRAMME AMBASSADORS  

United Kingdom

Kukri Sports is excited to unveil its new Youth Talent Programme (YTP) Ambassadors for 2025, in collaboration with our long-standing partner England Athletics.

The exciting roster of young athletes, who compete in a variety of events including javelin, hammer throw and sprinting, have been selected carefully from the England Athletics Youth Talent Programme.

The youth talent programme is a key starting point on the Talent Pathway, helping to nurture and develop the next generation of athletes and para-athletes aged 16-18.
